I never heared about until that bug tracker. Maybe it started before I became a pwb developer in 2009. Anyway I guess most of bot owner does not know it (as most of them does not use rewrite branch). Since the scripts and the main core methods are the same or quite similar (you know I don't like separate developments for the two branches) I am unhappy splitting the bug tracker, maybe it's the only way to migrate to the new tracker (until bugzilla is coming ;)

Yes. The original idea was to switch to JIRA (~ 2006), and as it was hard to convert all existing bugs, and everyone would be using the rewrite in the near future anyway, the idea was to switch to JIRA for te rewrite only.
In general, I think it makes sense to split off the bugs, as the code base is completely different. Adding a link somewhere might not be a bad idea, though
